Absolutely, rebuild the stock engine, IMO. We don't call 'em TRactor motors for nothing ... they'll run forever with proper maintenance and parts are far cheaper than for any late model foreign car.

Robert, when it comes to reliability, perhaps the letter shown under which I received in the early 1970's will set your mind at rest on the reliability issue Dear John A while back, you may remember

Why not if he wishes to. Not everyone is a total wuss Depending upon the weather my commute car has been either the TR3A or Land Rover Dormobile for the last 19 years. Works for me. But then again w
